Darina's Restaurant

I recommend this place for the best breakfast tacos in San Antonio Northside. I've been coming here for about three years and I always feel welcomed. The staff is always super nice and the food is always fresh. Go in on Thursdays for the chili reano special.

ordered over the phone and specifically asked twice for extra lemon slices for my menudo ... also asked when picking up and only received 3 . i even mentioned if i can get 6 but ok . tortillas were very hard and chewy but they looked nice and homemade . menudo was also full of just mainly juices that had no flavor . 2 stars only bc service was quick and employee was friendly . packaging for menudo was great came in a small bag with a lid and foil

Really wanted fideo which i normally get from leon valley cafe down the road but they were closed. So i figured a mexican restaurant could probably deliver a better product than leon valley cafe a non mexican place. Boy was i wrong. Highlights: packaged well. Came with tortillas and it was cheap. Con: very bland. Edible at best. Tortillas were tough. Broth was ok. Leon valleys is so much better i just dont understand how something so simple can lack so much. I will probably go back and try something else to give it a more rounded take but for now the fideo is all i have to go off of. ‍

This place is a hidden gem. The tortillas are homemade, soft, and fluffy. The refried beans are good too. My whole family ate breakfast for about $6 per person. It's a great value for what you are paying.

Another great find!!! My husband, two daughters and I stopped in for breakfast. Food was fresh and delicious. My husband had the egg and steak. The steak was seasoned perfect!! My daughter had the menudo, just enough spice and again delicious. My other daughter had one bean and cheese taco and asked for more. I had a barbacoa and nopale a la Mexicana, both were fresh and delicious. I highly recommend and will be coming back!!

This has got to be by far the best tasting mexican food I've had in a lonnng while. The portions, filling. The food, full of flavor. I'm at lost for words. Definitely returning very soon and more often :)
